Christmas Teddy Contest!

Congratulations to Jen Smith!

In December we also gave previous contestants a second chance to win a Teddy. We are happy to announce that Jen Smith from Mundelein, Illinois, USA is the lucky winner of  Christmas Teddy "Witherspoon" and a box of delicious Lindt chocolate!

"Hello :)  I'm gonna be a bit selfish here and submit myself. I'm 41, divorced, 3 kids.

 I worked full time at I job I loved. In June '12, I started having severe neck/shoulder/arm pain, and my right arm and hand went numb.

 For some reason I had 2 discs in my neck herniate and bulge out cutting off my nerve endings.

 A year and a half later, 3 surgeries, here I sit, still numb, in pain, can't drive, lost my job (they're ready to take me back once I heal) and I feel like there's no end in sight.

 I lay at home day after day, no quality of life. I believe stuffed animals are wonderful creatures to hold that allows us to nurture our inner most selves and help connect us to that lost lonely and sad piece of our spirit we are afraid to show. Thank you for reading. " 

We wish you a Merry Christmas Jen! Teddy Bear and chocolate is on it's way :)

We will be back in January with a new contest, but now it time to relax a little bit!
We will still send Teddy Bears of course ;)

You will find this Christmas Witherspoon Teddy Bear here.
